Customer Reviews

Thanks to the friend that sent this book

Sudden tragic loss is fortunately the visitor of few people. But when it comes to your door, it is monumental and unforgetable. I was blessed to be sent this book about 2 weeks after the loss. It is well written and was a constant companion for many weeks. If you find yourself in my place this treasure will help you very much. D.Larry D.

Great help for recovering from feelings of loss

There are a lot of different kinds of losses we all must face at one time or another. Each one can put us onto an emotional rollercoaster whether it is the loss of a loved one, a job, a friendship, or a multitude of other possibilities. In "Grief Steps" author Brook Noel discusses the ten normal steps for working through grief. For some people one step may be so short that it is unnoticed as they pass through, others may spend a great deal of time in that particular place. We are all different and while we handle grief differently in many respects we also go through it in similar stages. This book is about those stages and moving through the progression to healing.Each of the grief steps has its own chapter, with extensive information on what to expect in that particular step. For each stage there are also exercises, activities, or goals to help you work through that step and on to the next stage of healing."Grief Steps: 10 Steps to Regroup, Rebuild and Renew After Any Loss" is a strong treatment of grief associated with any type of loss and is well done. However, if your loss were the loss of a person very close to you I would recommend her other book, "I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye". That is not to say that this book would not be valuable if you lost a loved one, just that the other one is better for that particular type of loss. On the other hand, if you are experiencing loss and grief due to the loss of a job, empty nest syndrome, divorce, or similar situations then this book may be your better bet. "Grief Steps" is well done and highly recommended.
